Film has been around almost since the beginning of time (okay, not that old, but close!) and while there have been many stinkers during all this time, there’s been a whole lot of iconic, beloved, influential and timeless cinema in every genre that have transformed culture in ways that can’t easily be described. I take on this nerve wracking task of listing just100 of what I and many, many, many other cinemaphiles consider the all time greats. Fair warning: Plenty of truly great films will unfortunately be left off of this list, but forcing myself to nail it down to just one hundred I had to be very discriminating….

100. Deadpool. 2016.

99. Love & Basketball. 2000.

98. Love Jones. 1997.

97. The Original Kings of Comedy. 2000.

96. White Men Can’t Jump. 1992.

95. Scream. 1996.

94. Beetlejuice. 1988.

93. Eddie Murphy: Raw. 1987.

92. The Nutty Professor. 1996.

91. Shrek. 2001.
